After an 18 month search for a lifer PRS. I finally found one in a Grissom Standard tobacco burst, 1 day before Covid shut the whole 🌎 down. Never even plugged it in, met the Reverb seller in a parking lot, played a couple chords handed over the cash, and there ya go...

[@bazitube390]

good choice beautiful guitar. i want a les paul but these are on another lvl in terms of qc

[@masque1313]

Very cool to see the shout out to Wilcutt Guitars!!!!! I live just a few miles away from them and have been buying guitars and amps from there in person for 35 years. Class organization and great people!!!

[@donprater6944]

I'm an ESP / Ibanez guy myself, although I also have a Les Paul and and a Fender Strat. My neighbor brought a CE over the other night and that thing was phenomenal. I really want one now.

[@terrysimm749]

got a DGT superb. also have a Tremonti which is also superb but totally different

[@AlanW]

Ok, story time. I have a buncha PRSseses ... don't judge ... I bought my second one in 2006, a Custom 22 stop tail. Definitely opened my eyes to the lure of non-trem guitars. Fast forward to last year, my local shop gets in the beautiful 2007 Custom 22 20th anniversary with a wonderful top in the most amazing orange ever. Problem was, I already have a custom 22, basically the same guitar, right? I take it off the wall to play it. Ohh, it's like a kilo lighter than my old one. Interesting. The acoustic sound off it is also surprising. Plugged in, very nice! Something special about this one somehow. I end up taking it home. Comparing against my other one, supposedly the exact same guitar, just a year apart, and there's an obvious difference. Thing is, I feel like the pickups are actually holding it back. I have another with a set of PRS 57/08 pickups in it, which, at the time, was my go-to. I take a chance and order up another set for this one. Mag-i-cal. It's become my #1. So, there are two morals to this story: 1. Sometimes a guitar is just amazing, and it doesn't have anything to do with which model it is. Don't be surprised if you go try another DGT and it's not doing the same thing as that one. 2. Don't discount what a great set of pickups can do for you. I highly recommend you consider a set of the PRS 57/08s for your McCarty. They definitely have the sounds you were describing hearing from that DGT. Las Paul Humbucker/Tele pickup in the bridge, and hopped up strat in the neck. I rather figure you already know all this, but thought I'd put it out there anyway, perhaps for others.

[@carpediem4413]

Got a 594 and blown away with how far above it is over all my others. Just amazing

[@bluesful]

The middle position on this sounds fantastic. Can't be many DGTs here in Perth.

[@SPR-Pedals]

Yes, probably the best PRS ever. A PRS for people who aren't sure if they like PRS. I finally get my 2016 Charcoal Jadeburst DGT back soon after not seeing it for over a year (moved countries and it had been stuck in a container). It's probably my favourite guitar as it just does everything well. Super comfortable, light, glorious vintage sounding pickups with incredibly usable split tones. A wonderful blend between a Les Paul and a Strat but with its own sound My second PRS after getting a USA Tremonti. Very happy with both.

[@georgealberto1985]

I want this guitar so badly!

[@rileyioacura]

Prs are the best guitars for me (definitely going to get one when I can) amazing video dude

[@LeonTodd]

You should!

[@RaúlCabezalí]

Agreed (both that PRSs are the best guitars and that the video is amazing).

[@SixStringHarmonies]

Never owned or held a bad PRS. Not one. Even the SE's are top notch. Even the goofy, old SE Paul Allender signature with the bat inlays and EMG 81/85 was a beautiful guitar. (That was back when WMI made them in South Korea.) Amazing quality. Now I believe Cort is making the SEs, but still excellent. The Maryland domestic PRS' are a outstanding.

[@foxyfoxtrot4233]

Great demo! Probably the best demo of arguably the best PRS. I have the standard version (no maple cap) and it’s killer in every way.

[@foxyfoxtrot4233]

@@LeonTodd So now you need one of course 😁

[@lordgraga]

I had a DGT once but it was completely dead sounding and muffled. Ending up trading it away. But favourite PRS’es (I’ve owned ~10) are CE models, so that’s also in the very opposite end of the spectrum.

[@Adipsia1]

I've owned a few lovely PRS's but never bonded with them... until I purchased my DGT. The most versatile guitar out there.

[@LeonTodd]

They're amazing

[@guyfromnj]

Dgt is the strat guys les Paul for lack of a better way to put it. If you a guy that plays a strat but has always loved the way a les Paul sounds but can't get on with the way it feels dgt all the way. It's the strat players les Paul.

[@LeonTodd]

THIS

[@donewithmodernlife]

Interesting... I’m a Jazzmaster/Tele guy who has never been able to get on with Les Pauls. I do have a PRS S2 C24 that I love but it does not sound Les Paul-ish at all. Maybe time to look at a DGT?!?

[@chukrock]

Right on the money. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Strat guy but I'm most comfortable on my DGT over all my other humbuckers.

[@rtbmusic1135]

This hits the nail on the head. Exactly why I bought a DGT.

[@electricgypsyblues4761]

Wow an actual decent PRS

[@waikschoner4885]

Unfortunately I never had the chance to try out one of the DGTs. But it sounds awesome as I am used to PRS guitars. As always it is a matter of taste but my favorite PRS guitar is a 408 Semi Hollow for everything butt metal (little Stell Panther joke) and a CE22 for everything but especially for Heavy Rock and Metal :) I also have a pre lawsuit Single Cut Trem with #7 Pickups which is amazing in it's own way. :)

[@firemanmick]

I've got a Custom 24 and the 408 semi and yeah, the 408 has a voice all of it own - absolutely love the 408 narrow bobbin neck pickup both humbucking and split. It's got the Pattern Regular neck which is not my profile of choice (my C24 has the Pattern Thin) but only takes a few minutes to adapt to.

[@DanOughton]

Looks like an older one if it's full nitro pre 2012..? Awesome guitars can't recommend them highly enough.

[@Vipto69]

I have s2 24 custom I love prs guitars great feel and sound and quality awesome

[@luthiervandros]

Another solid video. I have a 94 Custom 22 Stoptail with west German tuners and the small PRS logo. The guitar is under 7lbs and the oem case is over 19lbs lol.

[@chukrock]

I have one EXACTLY the same. I have four PRSi and the DGT is my most played.

[@AndyK.23]

Great guitar, but, I think it sounds muddier than your McCarty and Single Cut. Could be the pickups, but too mid-heavy I believe.

[@Strat642001]

After i got my DGT Artist package with rosewood neck and Brazilian fretboard, i was done buying guitars. Absolutely love my DGT! The pups were mirrored after David Grissom's 1959 335, so vintage and not so hot. Its a guitar i pick up, and feel like i can play anything my mind can th8nk of.

[@LeonTodd]

Rosewood necks are just delightful

[@alexstrong6310]

You deserve a Paul Reed Smith "Leon Todd" signature model - love your gear demos & playing :-)

[@LeonTodd]

Would anyone buy a black SC245 with no fingerboard inlays, a single volume knob and a purple beanie as case candy? Anyone? Bueller?!

[@CentaurusRelax314]

I keep talking myself into and out of a DGT. Looks and sounds great, but the $4k price is ludicrous, considering my lack of talent. I was going to build a second Strat, but when you played the split neck pickup, it sounded pretty Stratty, and maybe i should just consider this for the duties i had in mind for a second Strat....

[@frankenstein4106]

I recently bought a used '09 DGT 10 top in tobacco burst, fantastic playing/sounding guitar! #1 guitar of all the ones I own.

[@LeonTodd]

Good choice!

[@Grant_Ferstat]

I've never been a PRS guy but I want a DGT. The voicing of the pickups, the nitro, headstock angle etc etc. They're the PRS voiced for folks with more vintage tastes.

[@CameronMosesart]

wow that guitar has very guitar like attributes

[@TungstenCarlbide]

ROCK BOTTOM! Leon, ever get into Mark Reale or Riot much???

[@justcantshred]

Ever since I found the McCarty 594 I realized hardtail guitars were the thing for me, the DGT is the only guitar that made me think twice. The Triple Crown model sounds great as well, I have a TC50 and it was very close.

[@kingfisher7960]

I own 7 PRS! Wont own any other brand after 30 years playing. I am also very partial to Fractal!

[@MrBoze-TicoCR]

Oh wow.... Rock Bottom..YES!!! Nicely done. Really would welcome a full clip on the comparison of the 3; DGT/SC245/Mcarty. It would be interesting to have your take on it as you’ll be in a good opportunity to have all 3 for that. From your ending short clip, there is an already noticeable tone difference as the SC comes across the darkest while the DGT sounds more like an older LP where there’s a beefed-up Tele-like having some clarity. Haven’t heard enough of the Mcarty to make a proper description. A good challenge would be since the DGT has a trem, how does the floating bridge affect the performance when you have drop-D or other tunings. Just to add to THIS video,... your playing seemed a bit “inspired”...DGT in your future I guess.

[@jasonwallis3252]

Great video as usual Leon! Thanks for all you do. Super helpful and chops to kill! Does your McCarty have the stock pickups? I have a 99 McCarty and the pickups seem a bit anemic for lack of a better term., particularly the bridge. The guitar plays like butter but curious on your take on the pickups as I am considering a swap. Either the pups or selling and getting a Single cut or DGT. Thx!

[@wizwaseerwilson5489]

Hi Leon, great DGT Demo, it has a great range of sounds. I am looking for a guitar that has a great Les Paul sound, but is easier to play - i.e. easier access to the top end of the neck. Do you think the DGT does this as well as your PRS single cut ?? I don't need strat tones from a DGT as I have a strat... Or would a PRS single cut be a better option for me.... Thanks

[@denniswilliams2385]

I know that everyone raves about the pickups on the DGT, but I just can’t stand them. Hey, to each his or her own.

[@zlol_ssbm]

More reviews need to play the guitars unplugged for some amount of time. The acoustic resonance is probably the first thing somebody should be considering when buying a guitar, even an electric. This and the connection the player has with the neck are far more important than the specs

[@rgoring81]

Came for the tones, stayed for the stankface. Killer stuff.

[@jasonsapp792]

I bought a first year 2008 DGT from Dave's Guitar Shop on Reverb ... never played one but I LOVE PRS guitars and for the price I didn't think very long .... Has been a wonderful guitar ...mine is sunburst but man that Tobacco burst you have there Leon is my favorite PRS finish in that vintage color pallet

[@jaricklosey4607]

Reminds me of my PRS, a CE24 in the same finish with Suhr pickups closer to PAF. The Thorn neck has some of that single coil snap. I found the Thorn bridge a bit tame so the SSV+ has a little more edge. Although I am waiting on a set of Friedman Classic pickups to compare. Anyway the PRS with PAF is an awesome combo!

[@ssstenning]

Stop putting yourself down mate, you’re an ace player (including Trem work)

[@benpeasley6394]

My PRS cu24 is also my best sounding guitar acoustically. Got it off eBay for a steal...no regrets.

[@DannyBrooks1]

PRS Modern Eagle 1 with the Brazilian neck is arguably the best PRS ever made. The DGT is a close second. Nice review 👍

[@LeonTodd]

YUM

[@rezakhan8290]

That neck pickup is so awesome. It has that tele spank to it. Great demo.

[@bestboy897]

Omg this is the best sounding prs ive ever heard

[@eduardwilliams1245]

Desert island guitar.

[@Bognerman14]

They are nice PRS guitars. I had one and the McCarty. I find the Singlecut and SC250 to sound a lot bigger and fuller. Check it out. I also love the standard PRS 10" radius board and 250 pickups rock. The singlecuts are so loud acoustically.

[@LeonTodd]

My number one is an SC245, love that thing. Would love to grab an sc250 to add to the stable!

[@hieronymus932]

The pickups don’t split 100% so the volume drop isn’t as severe and the humm isn’t either.

[@LeonTodd]

Now that is very itneresting - they sound great like that!

[@peterschmidt9942]

I've bought a couple of guitars just playing them acoustically and not plugging them in beforehand. One was a honey coloured epiphone SG and the other a natural Washburn 335 style. If the guitar has a natural resonance to itself, I think it inspires you to play it more. Not that it actually makes it sound any different when it's plugged in though.

[@guitarvirtuoduder]

Willcutt always has amazing PRS guitars. Everything else is hit or miss

[@rikiandov17]

Lovely Comparison, Awesome Playing

[@LeonTodd]

Thanks a lot!

[@gousa2005]

Fantastic! Just what you needed - yet another guitar! LOL The Axe FX III is picking up all the subtle nuances in the guitar! Sounds amazing!

[@Terribleguitarist89]

The DGT and 513 are on my WANT list of guitars... The Hollowbody ii is in there too haha The Paul's Guitar models are sick too but not really my vibe.

[@8sigreg]

They quit making the 513, and now have the 509. It’s a very nice sounding guitar. I was recording with mine using the pickups split and it’s got a very nice Strat-like sound.

[@guitardave]

You ever played a Washburn N4 Leon? I know you like your ADA and Soldano amps - I’ve got a feeling you’d love the N4 with those!

[@LeonTodd]

Yeah they're killer - I'd just never play it enough to justify owning one.

[@abeautifulcity3301]

[@Delyssio]

[@mrGood-84]

TWANGY PRS?! Wow! :) Sounds killer!

[@MelbourneGuitarist]

Great vid Leon. The DGT has a distinctive bass note. Had a McCarty 2008 that got replaced by the new McCarty. New McCarty is also awesome with slightly lower output but very well defined humbuckers. The dgt though has a really distinctive tone. Kept both! Keep up the good work 👍

[@EstebanOnGuitar]

Man, that guitar sounds so good! I’m looking at buying a PRS and this one has definitely caught my eye. I have two Strats, so I’m thinking about going a different direction and grabbing an older McCarty or an SC245, but this thing sounds ridiculously good...

[@MorGuitarz]

These are awesome, classic-voiced PRS's... And they never lose their clarity, even though they have the very full/thick bass tone. Also, the 594 was somewhat based on a 59 Les Paul that PRS had in the shop during their design... (which had the 25.594" scale, unlike their current 24.75" scale). The neck on the 594, Pattern Vintage, is to die for... Truly a special guitar also

[@LeonTodd]

I got to loan a 594 singlecut for a clinic last year and it was SUPERB

[@MorGuitarz]

@Ben Hackett yes! Sorry, typo!

[@SixStringHarmonies]

I think it's fair to state that, whether import SE or domestic, PRS is the most consistent, most high-quality major-market builder on the planet. Impossible to find a bad one, because they never leave the factory. Unlike other mainstream major companies that let guitars out with razor-sharp fret ends, twisted necks, and worse.

[@Brennosguitarsandgear]

Critical Mindset , agreed , they are very consistent

[@MrRockinson]

Nice, I think they've got a slightly fatter body and bigger frets. If you like it, I think I will too, I'd like bigger frets in my Tremonti but it might mess it up. DGT sounds like the go.

[@daveredfern8258]

Use to own the ivory white with flame binding version with a wound G and had to sell her. 😤 It was the best guitar that I have ever played.

[@ErwinArmovit]

congrats on the new guitar! excellent demo--the tone is incendiary! and the way those contours catch the light.. ohhh maan

[@cshortlife9179]

In the comparison I thought the DGT had the best overall tone of all three guitars, but your black PRS was more Metal and handled that stuff better.

[@JB19504]

My McCarty 594 Hollowbody II Ten Top smelled liked the old time Play Dough for a month after I bought it from Sweetwater. Ten Top in Tobacco Burst. Ahh the smell of Nitro. Gets me high!

[@riccovrea841]

I’ve played a few, there ok for me. I’ve got a McCarty trem there kind of a hard find. But will worth buying one. It’s basically the same as my hard tail McCarty. I think it would be cool if PRS would do SC245 trem. I’m not a fan of the Tremonti trem model. Hold it side-by-side next to your McCarty and see if it’s the same body thickness.

[@LeonTodd]

They did a Singlecut trem for a while but I've never tried one - a 245 trem would be tasty!

[@riccovrea841]

Leon Todd Yeah I’ve owned a few they’re just not the same like the SC245 like wiring and I love the 245 pickups.

[@14Maxmom]

I fell in love with PRS after I picked up an SE about 7 years ago. After upgrading to some older CE models, I don’t know if I can go back to the 3 way toggle. The 5 way rotary switch positions are so great and even in the bolt ons the quality is unmatched by other mid range US models

[@LeonTodd]

Takes a little while to "get" the rotary but it's gold when you do

Great looking and sounding guitar. PRS stocks of course. My brother continues to not sell me his 89 or 90 ten top which makes me cry. 😂 His guitar, my brothers has a knob that controls selection of the pickups and splitting the coils which I really like because it's clean without the switches on the front if the guitar.. I also check all guitars playing them acoustically before plugging them in. I have a friend from Ca who has a p.hd in physics who explained to me the important thing in sound on a guitar is the nut, bridge, strings and pickups mostly as well as stiffness of the neck so that vibration from the strings isn't killed. So, I've always liked medium to thick necks because they do seem to sustain better and have better tone. I also saw a vid of a guitar builder who used software to watch the frequencies and eq of a strat, and then did the same to a neck and buckets if sand with the same pickups mounted on the buckets and it was identical. That's why your carbon fiber guitar sounds great. Pickups, a great hard nut, great bridge and such help! Great vid sir. Sorry for going off tangent there.. The PRS trem is outstanding. 2nd only fo the schaller floyd or OFR from Germany jn staying intune that I've tried I played a floyd equipped SE. PRS that was absolutely killer. I have to get my strat built. Jap body, US made neck with bonenut, 3 single coil EMG SAs, etc,. Check out the pic I sent ya of my Ibanez S series and the graphic I did. You'll love it. Very 80s.

Rick Feith The DGT is a wonderful guitar; I have two of them. I’d also recommend the Studio model, which has two Narrowfield pickups and a bridge humbucker, and the 509, which has double single coil pickups at the bridge and the neck and a single coil in the middle, and when they’re split it sounds very Strat-like. I have a SC245, which I like better than any Les Paul I ever owned. PRS are great playing guitars.
